Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship between dyslipidemia and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), with which as a theory base and proof we may further study about the mechanism of atherosclerosis (AS) leading to AAA. Methods Thirty abdominal aortic aneurysm patients in Guangdong General Hospital from 2013 to 2014 were enrolled into the experimental group and 26 healthy people into the control group. The serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein a (Lpa), nonestesterified fatty acid (NEFA), homocysteine (HCY), apolipoprotein A (ApoA) and apolipoprotein B(ApoB)were tested in the study. The statistical significance of the difference of them was examined by the independent two-sample t-test. Result The serum TG and HCY level in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum ApoA and HDL level in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum levels of TC, LDL, Lpa, NEFA and Apo B had no significant difference in both groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The serum levels of TG and HCY are increased and the levels of Apo A and HDL are decreased in patients with AAA.
